Dell Back Up & recovery by acting weird

Hiya

I have a new 660 s Inspiron, I with G2020 processor, 4 GB RAM, HDD 500 GB and McAfee installed. I tried to use the back up and restore, but it looks like this.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice and updated, but it does not change. BTW, this isn't an April fool!

I FOUND THE PROBLEM, and I am probably about to embarrass Dell in the process, but my local theory has proved to be correct.

If you go to: C:\Program Files (x 86) \AlienRespawn\locale (replace AlienRespawn for backup of Dell) and recovery for no Alienware systems

Then, open the file DBR.xml. You will find all of the chips of IDS that it displays off. Here, you will notice that Dell did not in all en-GB entries! To confirm I have just added a couple of test inputs and the result is:

As my text custom lol...

I guess you could change your system to use US, while she reads the Scriptures, but still, bit of an oversight here! Nice one Dell! Maybe the way that locale is managed in Windows 8 has taken unawares. Who knows.

Now to see if I can be bothered to rewrite entries-GB myself!

  • "Dell Backup and Recovery" asking the upgrade with the inspiron 15 model

    Hello

    I'm new to this forum and also started to use the Dell laptop. I bought Dell Inspiron 15 (model 3521) 01-Jan-2014. I am trying to take backup of my laptop on a DVD. When I clicked on 'Backup and restore of Dell' app in app Manager. I try to click on backup system option 'Dell backup and recovery' section, its upgrade premium or enter key. Its not that allows to create backup DVDs.

    What may be the issue? Because when I bought it, seller said that his original one.

    It's part a scam from Dell.  I've got 5 Dell portable computers/computers / tables all have this software on it with a VERY limited useage then weekly or if I get a pop window op offering the upgrade at a special price which, in the end, is the same price as if you would have just bought or 'improved' (like Dell likes to call it) the program to a regular price which IS : 39.99.

    What I hate about businesses, in particular, the one that I spend a lot of money with it, is when they think they can put a quick access on me or in my case 5 times that I have 5 of these upgrade special offer windows popping up each week.

    You're better off getting programs like Goodsync which will back up your computer or synchronize your files on an external hard drive, and that you can use on all of your computers for only $29.99.  I use it on my servers and my offices.

    Otherwise good luck with Dell and their implementation to special day called 'offer' that is the price of retail, after all.  NOT COOL DELL ALL!

  • Dell backup and recovery file storage location

    I am trying to locate where a backup of files of initial data with the help of Dell Backup and Recovery on my new Windows 7 laptop (Jan 2015), stored backup files.  I failed to provide parameters to use an external hard drive for backup.  I want to clean up backup files it does I can start using an external hard drive as storage location.  I looked everywhere, both on my laptop and Google search to find the location.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I know that it is a bit a necro but since it is unanswered.

    You can determine where the Dell Backup and Recovery Software stored your files by default when opening the software and start to run another backup. (Note: when you run the software again you may see the option to run another backup from the home screen.) In this case click on the drop-down menu almost invisible in the title bar (blue arrow), then select "Backup" (red arrow) in the menu.)

    On the screen "Data Backup", check the "local".

    'Creating data backup' screen will display a box titled "Browse...". "under the title"Where. "

    At the bottom of this box, you should see the path where Dell Backup and Recovery saved your backup.

    For me, the default location is "C:\users\CURRENT_USER\Documents". (CURRENT_USER is your user name).

    If you navigate to this location in Windows Explorer, you should see a folder named "Profile1". Here's my Dell backup files are stored by default.

    If for any reason you do not see a folder named "Profile1" I open the files in the default location and search for files with the .inp file extension. What are your backup files.

    BTW, for anyone reading the FAQ is NOT DELL-Jesse L linked to you to note what the FAQ for Dell backup and recovery that is currently in use. This is the FAQ for their former Dell DataSafe Local Backup 2.0 software which they no longer use. If you read that FAQ you can noticed the question and the answer below:

    How can I move backups of the system to another location for storage?

    Backup system can be moved to another storage location if you wish. Simply open Dell DataSafe and edit the backup for backups of your system profile. When you select the location, select the location where you want that all backups of the system to create. The application will automatically move all backups of your system to this new location.

    I just tested this in the current version of Dell backup and restore (version 1.8.1.70), and he did NOT move my old files from backup to the new location, he created a new copy from the backup, so you should delete old copies manually.

    I hope this helps someone.

  • Run Dell Windows 8 recovery on USB support?

    Hello! I have a Dell 15r and recovery for Windows 8 on DVD media.

    I wish I could install Windows 8 (UEFI) from a USB key. I tried the usual methods (Microsoft and also some tools 3rd party to create a bootable USB support), but I had different types of errors. It seems that the image is not compatible with these methods.

    Is it possible to do?

    Thank you in advance!

    Where did you got the .iso image file?

    Have you used Rufus?

  • Windows 8: Dell Back Up and restore

    Yesterday, the dialogue appeared on my screen asking if I wanted to download Dell Back Up and restore.

    I downloaded this, but at the end of the download, more dialog appears, saying that the first 30 days are free.

    When I downloaded the software, I had the impression that he was totally free.

    When I bought my Dell desktop computer, I gave my card details. After using the software, as detailed above, 30 days will be charged on my card? Or if I cancel my request for use of the software before the 30 day period, could I find myself money Dell?

    Hi Donny99,

    The program Dell Back Up and restore basic version is available free of charge. This version allows you to perform backups and recoveries of your data, but the storage would be your responsibility.

    A Premium version is available, which charges a small fee for the storage of data, continuous backups and store your data on cloud servers.  This type of storage would be beneficial in the case of a destruction of the catastropic of your local storage space. IE: fire, flood, incident linked to severe weather and well worth the small price if you have sensitive or valuable data.

    Here a video explaining how it works.

    In addition, the credit card number you gave at the command of your computer is not registered anywhere.  You will need to re-enter your card details to pay for the Premium version of the software DBAR.

    Hope that this helps, if you have any other questions, feel free to private Message me.  Thank you.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Start Safe Mode removes the system caches that can help.

    Follow these steps to start in safe mode.

    1. Start or restart your Mac.
    2. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
    3. Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

    After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

    To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.

    Then, try the Finder.
